Default Ram body lift

I came across a cheap brand new 3" body lift its for an 03-05 ram 1500 I have and 06 ram 1500. I need to know will this fit my truck. If not what will it take to make it fit my truck. What are the differences in the two kits. Its a performance lift kit. If that helps. Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me.

Well PA's website says their '02-'05 kit WILL NOT work on '06-'08 Ram 1500s. But that could just be that it's not as "plug & play". I know the front bumper bracket are different, but again, an experienced installer would be used to fabrications. The right kit is readily available just about anywhere for under $350. If you can get the other kit at enough off to justify any problems/modifications that may need to be made, go for it...

Well I have some mechanical skills. But fas far as the truck this will be the first thing I have done on it. I have put lifts on jeeps so as long as I can figure it out I will probly go for it. The kits costs $60 so I figure its not to much out of my pocket if it doesnt work. I will probly try calling performance lifts.
